For the year, Morgan Stanley is up 55% compared to Goldman Sachs' 24%. So, what's Morgan Stanley doing right that Goldman Sachs isn't?

Well, here's one thing that may help answer that question: the two socks were trading fairly close together until May. That's just about the time Federal Reserve Chief Ben Bernanke hinted that Fed would taper its $85 billion per month bond-buying program by the fall.

Of course, the Fed never did taper but a massive selloff in bonds began in May. The division at Goldman responsible for bond trading had a 44% decrease in revenues during the most recent quarter.

Meanwhile, what's next for Morgan Stanley?
